I would show all 4. I don't think you can show too many quilts at a guild meeting. I love seeing them all.

My guild doesn't have a limit and I love show and tell so the more the better. We only do show and tell at alternate meetings.

I would show them all, as everyone enjoys other quilts, and it inspires me, and helps with ideas.

If I had four quilts I wanted to show, I'd show them.. We are casual and enjoy seeing what others are doing. If I felt like that might be a bit much, then I'd ask some of my friends to help me my holding up three of them at the same time.. After I held the one I wanted to show most I would simply bundle it in my arms and say a word or two about the others being held.. I don't think anyone would think that was over the top. (and if they did, oh well, you can't please everyone every time!)

I go to a monthly meeting at our local quilt shop and we do show and tell first. That is where you get so many ideas. Not all of it is quilts. It can be anything that we have made in the last month.

I have taken up to 9 quilts at a time to share with my fellow guild members - sometimes I don't have any no one seems to mind.

Take them all and ask if they want to see all of them.

Show and tell is my absolute favorite part. Can't have too many.

I prefer one per person for quilts. sometimes we show two or three smaller projects. showing takes up a lot of time.

The guild I belong to was getting way out of hand; some people were showing 7-10 items each. So, what they decided to do is place all the charity quilts in the back of the meeting room; they were hung over a coat rack and you could see most of each one. They then designated the "show and tell" for other items with no limit on them. I find it much more enjoyable since they switched to this method. Too many of them were looking too much alike and the time for our speaker was being infringed on.
